  • 151000 miles: great vehicle - 1998 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    This was one of the first off the manufacturing line: number 2000 something. Many early annoying issues with rattles etc., but once these got ironed out it has been outstanding. It burns no oil whatsoever even at 150k. It has powerful acceleration and great handling for a suv.

    I bought my 98 ML320 in July 2000 for $26,000, and since then Ive had nothing short of an outstanding vehicle. Ive had no problems at all with it. The engine is very reponsive and powerful, and the 5-speed driver- adaptive automatic transmission shifts beautifully. The Starmark service is great. Thereve been no problems with any electrical systems or switches, transmission, engine, or controls like others have claimed. Itll treat you good if you do the same. Take care of it and itll last you a long time.

  • Super SUV - 1998 Mercedes-Benz M-Class

    When i first saw the car i thight it was a minivan, but when i drove it the first time it was like a miracle. It was fast, and agile. People do tell me though that the car is more expensive than the BMW x5, but i wouldnt trade it for the world.

  • Love it despite electrical issues - 1998 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I love this car BUT I had electrical issues at 60K miles which lead to an $800 fix. Dealership told me the underside of the car was wet too frequently, but no off road usage and was garaged when not driven. Also have had to replace the drivers window switch 4 times - opened 4 times a day every day for tolls, but my Honda did fine with the same drive.

  • Old Reliable - 1998 Mercedes-Benz M-Class

    The truck went through routine maitenance. I only had 1 problem with the dashboard lights. Never had no signifant problems with the truck since. Great off-raod and in bad weather. I would get another without hesitation.

  • LOVE IT! Very happy! - 1998 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I havent had this car very long (just got it used), but I can tell you that so far everythings perfect and I LOVE driving it -- its beautiful, not too big and not too small, rugged yet smooth, and just feels much more solid than all of the other mini-SUVs I test drove. I think that even if it costs a bit more than average to service it eventually, itll be worth it! (My husband may have a different opinion.) :)
